Joe Calzaghe gives up title to Face Roy Jones Jr - Boxing

By Johnny Benz, Doghouse Boxing (July 4, 2008) DoghouseBoxing.com

According to the British Boxing Board of Control, on Friday Joe Calzaghe relinquished his WBC super-middleweight title to set up a possible match up against Roy Jones Jr. for the light heavyweight title.

Calzaghe wants to fight Jones Jr. later this year, hopefully in September.

In relequishing his WBC title, Calzaghe is no longer obligated to defend it against Carl Froch. Calzaghe still holds the WBA and WBO super-middleweight belts.

Recently Calzaghe also split from his long-term promoter Frank Warren.
